Everything was great, especially the staff and cleanliness of the room.

Karasia United States of America

LOCATION! LOCATION! We had a fabulous room overlooking the ocean. What's not to love there. The ease of getting to the beach was important to us. We also walked to fabulous restaurants each night. Service was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious.

Maureen United States of America

Can’t understand why I his is not a 5 star hotel. Best experience .

Nahid United States of America

Absolutely everything. It was a great surprise this hotel - the cleaness of the entire hotel and especially the room, the availability of the staff, the location it was more than wonderful. I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it is, to be honest. They even suprised me, as they have seen that it was my birthday in one of the days of our stay, with sending complimentary champagne, cake and candle to my room. Their attention to details is a great surprise. Also, for those interested in water sports and activities, across the street from the hotel is a shop from where you can book activities. Mr. Nunu from there will be willing to help and book for you the activity you would like. Parasailing is top. The location was perfect, as at a walking distance you have shops, restaurants of all types, great views, the dock, farmacy etc. Overall, wonderful hotel to consider.

Everything was great, we've been 3 times and will be back, half board is great 👍

Pam Ireland

We stayed for 2 night and enjoyed our stay. The room was big and spacious. The pool and sunning area was great. The half board was really tasty! We would come back!

Melisa United States of America

Great views and very pleasant staff. Location is perfect. We came during the pandemic so the beach wasn’t very busy. Access from hotel. Many yummy restaurants nearby.

Kinga United Kingdom

I loved it!! The staff are incredible, they are very kind.. always willing to make the guests happy. I asked them, last minute, to organize a birthday cake and surprise for my husband.
